Both parties hoped all along to reunite what was a huge success: Returning the BMW Northwest Skins game to Chambers Bay Golf Course in University Place.

And they worked all of that out last week to make that happen.

Thought to be held at host Ryan Moore's home course – The Classic Golf Club – the second annual skins game will, indeed, go back to the site of the 2015 U.S. Open on Sept 13.

"That is where we wanted it all along," said Jeremy Moore, the brother of the PGA Tour golfer, and partner in Moore Sports Management. "It's the right venue, and a fantastic place for spectators.

"We had been working on the conflict for quite a while, and got it resolved last week."

The skins game will tee off at Chambers Bay at 9 a.m. on Sept 13. Moore, Australian Aaron Baddeley, Floridian Bubba Watson and fellow Northwest native Ben Crane will partake in the event.

The pro-am, and junior clinic will still be held Sept. 12 at The Classic in Spanaway.

Tickets for the skins game will be $20, and will be on sale starting Aug. 1 – online at nwgolf.org, or over the counter at The Classic or select Pro Golf Discount stores in the area.
